"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

Ai techniques (more on the ml side or just the math behind it) are starting to be applied to image and genome analysis to determine the boundaries from different types of cells based on gene expression. This is useful for identifying cancer where the gene expression is similar in many genes but the amount/ratio of expression might be different, and for identifying the location and size is the tumor

Problem is that some of the research is coming out of Israel which doesnt exactly have the best human rights of ethics track record, and i have no doubt the data for testing was gathered through human experimentation
